Translation: Depressed guys with guns in malls during holiday seasons? Get used to it.

Since 1949, Durhamites have slept soundly, secure in the knowledge that, in our town, erection can be depended upon. Now, thanks to the power of the internets, we can spread that security all over the world.

We've got to fight 'em over there so we don't have to fight 'em here!
Even if that were true, that would mean we spend $200-500 billion every year to make sure no foreigners come here to shoot us at our shopping malls. (It's late, I'm not going to look up precise figures on the cost of TWOT).
How much do we spend on enforcing gun laws? How much does the NRA spend on ensuring we don't have strong gun laws in the first place? How much do we spend on mental health resources?
You're absolutely right. Mall/school/office shooting rampages are a fact of life in the USA, as American as apple pie and a negative national savings rate.
